Reaction Steps

Acetyl chloride (0.9 ml) was added to a dichloromethane (20 ml) solution of N-[2-hydroxyiminopropyl]-2',6'-dimethylmethanesulphonanilide (2.6 g) and triethylamine (1.6 ml). The mixture was stirred and boiled under reflux for 3 hours, then filtered, and the filtrate evaporated to a clear yellow oil. A solution of this oil in chloroform was percolated through a short column of silica gel, and the eluate evaporated to give analytically pure N-[2-(acetyloxyimino)propyl]-2',6'-dimethylmethanesulphonanilide. Yield 1.9 g (63%).
